Panda Bear Pajama Eater

A Panda!!! I think I’ve decided this HAS to be a series.  A gaggle of different Pajama Eaters!!  For those that do not know what a Pajama Eater is, it’s an open pillow sleeve where you can store a child’s pajama’s on their bed.  It’s an adorable decor item for a child’s bed!  I just love this Panda Bear Pajama Eater.  Pandas seem to be all the rage these days for little girls.  I see panda shoes, panda tops… panda everything in the stores.  So why not add this to your collection?  After I made the Shark Pajama Eater and the Sleepy Bear Pajama Eater, I started thinking about all the possibilities!  Stay tuned for more….. and send me suggestions if you have any!!  I love getting ideas from you guys!

Finishing

Attach ears on either corner.  Embroider a nose and smile on muzzle and sew the circle only to the top part of the pillow.  Leave the bottom unattached so it will open and be a flap.  Attach each eye patches close to the muzzle on either side.  Sew a black button of your choice on each eye patch.  Embroider eyebrows above eye patches.  Attach bow under the left ear.

And you’re done!
